MacBookPro A1211 not booting after restart

I hope you don’t have an old Ford Model T running down the interstate!

Sadly, technology has moved on and while I too loved my titanium MacBook Pro when I had one, todays world requires more aggressive protection and web standards have also moved forward so if you get your system running again its not safe connecting to any network!

The CPU is limited other than a word processor or simple drawing database tasks it’s just not powerful enough for even for simple gaming.

So consider that if it’s worth fixing given its limitations, and the cost and availability of parts.
